February's Tank of the Month

This month's special tank is the KV-220! It is a Soviet Tier 5 Heavy that was awarded to our supportive Tank Commanders who joined us during World of Tanks' Beta Test. This tank is so rare that even veteran Tank Commanders with over 9,000 battles have only encountered one a handful of times. Grab this chance to drive your very own KV-220!

Featured Premium Tanks

KV-220

Although it has low penetration and a weak gun, it has potential to be a serial killer in battle. Be familiarised with weak spots of other tanks and you'll have a great chance of dominating the enemy.

Its armour is strong on the front and sides. But when driving this tank, remember: "Arty hates you." They will find you, and they will shred you to ribbons. Angle yourself well and keep moving to avoid getting hit.

Pros:

Strong armour

Well-angled armour can bounce shots

Fast reload speed

Ramming techniques can be used

Cons:

Weak penetration against better-armoured foes

Low accuracy makes it bad at sniping

Weak damage

T1E6

The T1E6 is a tier 2 American premium light tank. It has a great max speed (48km/hr) and rate of fire (42.86r/m). So, hit-and-run strategies work best for this tank.

Like most light tanks, the T1E6 has weak armor. This tank has a bad view range, so it does not perform well as a scout. For best results, team up with tanks that have stronger armor so you can utilize the T1E6's firing speed.

Pros:

Accelerates quickly

No cost for AP ammo

Maneuvers well

Good rate of fire

Satisfactory reload time

Cons:

Not a strong damage-dealer

Weak armor

Low accuracy

Limited view range

Tetrarch

It was provided to the USSR from Britain through the Lend-Lease Act. The tank was available as a 2012 New Year’s gift from Wargaming to all players for a limited time with the release of the 0.7.1 patch. The Tetrarch has also appeared in gift shop bundles on rare occasions.

It is well-armed, fast on firm ground and has a powerful radio. This is balanced by very weak armor, poor view range, and sluggish cross country and traverse performance.

Pros:

Excellent acceleration and top speed allows this tank to reach good spot positions very fast

Great traverse speed

Excellent penetration, accuracy and damage

Good turret traverse speed

Good signal range, stay in the near of your team while scouting for spotting damage

Fantastic (the typical tier 2) matchmaking

Cons:

Poor armor

Poor view range

Sluggish traverse

HE shells deal high damage

M3 Light

The M3 Light is a Soviet tier 3 premium light tank. It is currently not available from the in-game store.

It was previously available to new players for completing the in-game training course. It's slightly better than a stock M3 Stuart, but inferior to one that's been fully upgraded. Even so, don't underestimate this tank, as it still has decent top speed and a fast-firing cannon.
